ORTIZ, CARLOS HUMBERTO  y  URIBE, JOSÉ IGNACIO. HACIA UN MODELO DE DESARROLLO INCLUYENTE PARA EL VALLE DEL CAUCA. estud.gerenc. [online]. 2007, vol.23, n.102, pp.13-62. ISSN 0123-5923.

This article focuses in identifying those structural factors that explain the loss of log-run economic dynamism in Colombia and, in particular, in Valle del Cauca. The competitiveness of Valle in relation to Colombia and with the rest of the world is examined. The insistence in an exporting strategy as engine of economic development is challenged. It is identified that a large portion of population is excluded from the benefits of economic development. In order to build an inclusive model of development it is recommended to recover the path of industrialization, to invest in human capital (education of high quality, health, salubrity and nutrition), and to invest in infrastructure. The participation of the State in these social investments is necessary to diminish inequality and increase economic growth.

Palabras clave : Economic development; social inclusion; economic growth; competitive capacity; productive chains; social investment.
